Everything's Alright - Live At The Regent - John Farnham

Try not to get worried

Try not to turn on to problems that upset you

Oh, don't you know everything's alright?

Yes, everything's fine

And we want you to sleep well tonight

Let the world turn without you tonight

If we try, we'll get by

So forget all about us tonight

Everything's all right, yes

Everything's all right, yes

Sleep and I shall soothe you

Calm you and anoint you

Myrrh for your hot forehead

Oh, then you'll feel everything's all right, yes, everything's fine

And it's cool and the ointment's sweet

For the fire in your head and feet

Close your eyes, close your eyes and relax

Think of nothing tonight

Everything's all right, yes

Everything's all right, yes

Woman, your fine ointment, brand new and expensive

Could have been saved for the poor

Why has it been wasted?

We could have raised, maybe, three hundred silver pieces or more

People who are hungry, people who are starving

They matter more than your feet and hair

Try not to get worried

Try not to turn on to problems that upset you

Oh, don't you know everything's alright?

Yes, everything's fine

And we want you to sleep well tonight

Let the world turn without you tonight

If we try, we'll get by

So forget all about us tonight

Everything's all right, yes

Everything's all right, yes

Surely, you're not saying we have the resources

To save the poor from their lot

There will be poor always pathetically struggling

Look at the good things you've got

Think while you still have me

Move while you still see me

You'll be lost, you'll be so, so sorry

When I'm gone

Sleep and I shall soothe you

Calm you and anoint you

Myrrh for your hot forehead

Oh, then you'll feel everything's alright, yes, everything's fine

And it's cool and the ointment's sweet

For the fire in your head and feet

Close your eyes, close your eyes and relax

Think of nothing tonight

(Close your eyes, close your eyes and relax)

(Think of nothing tonight)

Close your eyes, close your eyes and relax

Think of nothing tonight

(Everything's all right, yes)

(Everything's all right, yes)

Close your eyes, close your eyes and relax

Think of nothing tonight

(Everything's all right, yes)

(Everything's all right, yes)

Close your eyes, close your eyes and relax

Think of nothing tonight

(Everything's all right, yes)

(Everything's all right, yes)
